2 After contact with skin In case of contact with skin wash off with soap and water. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists. After contact with eyes Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist. After ingestion Call a physician immediately Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Contact with eyes, skin or oral tissues may cause irritation Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Treat symptoms. SECTION 5: Firefighting measures 5.1. Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media Alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide (CO2), water-spray. Extinguishing media which must not be used for safety reasons Full water jet Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Fire may produce: Carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) Advice for firefighters In case of fire, wear suitable respiratory equipment with positive air supply. Protective suit. Additional information Fire residues and contaminated firefighting water must be disposed of in accordance with the local regulations. SECTION 6: Accidental release measures 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Use personal protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Attention. Hazard of skidding Environmental precautions Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater Methods and material for containment and cleaning up Take up with absorbent material (e.g. sand, kieselguhr, acid binder, general-purpose binder, sawdust). Shovel into suitable container for disposal Reference to other sections Observe protective instructions (see Sections 7 and 8). Information for disposal look up chapter 13. SECTION 7: Handling and storage 7.1. Precautions for safe handling Advice on safe handling Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Advice on protection against fire and explosion No special protective measures against fire required Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Requirements for storage rooms and vessels To be kept tightly closed, in a cool and dry place. Advice on storage compatibility Incompatible with oxidizing agents. Page 2 of 5

3 Further information on storage conditions Keep away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs Specific end use(s) Brake fluid SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1. Control parameters 8.2. Exposure controls Protective and hygiene measures Use barrier skin cream. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Respiratory protection No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. In case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment (gas filter type A). Hand protection Short time contact: Solvent-resistant gloves (nitrile rubber). Glove material must be impermeable and resistant against product / substance / preparation. Gloves material should comply with breakthrough times, permeation rates, and degradation. Requirements can vary as a function of the use. Therefore it is necessary to adhere additionally to the recommendations given by the manufacturer of protective gloves. Eye protection Safety goggles SECTION 9: Physical and chemical properties 9.1.
